Hunting for an excuse.

This Rhode Island school board went hunting for an excuse for their  failing school.
It appears they went hunting with a bomb instead of a rifle (Its an analogy...please don't get the wrong idea about the reference).  One of my friends said this was like a hospital removing someone's entire leg to treat a few small infected sores.
I understand the need for change, but to fire ALL of the teachers seems to be the wrong approach.

Who is the school board going to hire now?  An entire school of fresh graduates?  Teachers that have been fired from other purging school boards?  

What do you think?
